Does WakeMed hospital endorse ObamaCare?

Is WakeMed supporting ObamaCare? On September 3rd they are allowing Organizing for America to use the WakeMed North Healthplex for a rally in support of “Health Insurance Reform,” the new name for Health Care Reform (ObamaCare) which may shortly be changed to KennedyCare. As I posted in January, Organizing for America is President’s Obama political arm or permanent political campaign. This is not the first time they have used Organizing for America to push legislation. But why is Wake Med participating in this?

I have not seen an official press release but there is this blog at WakeMed (the largest hospital and 4th largest employer in Wake County) and there is this youtube video by WakeMed President and CEO Bill Atkinson:

It sure looks like he is pushing for some type of legislation and by allowing the Obama political machine to use his OUR hospital as a part of the campaign it would appear he is supporting ObamaCare. When the citizens of Wake County turned the county owned hospital over to a private non-profit corporation, did they really think this is what it would be used for?
